Funny 2 Truths and a Lie
What are good 2 truths and a lie?
Two truths and a lie is a popular game in groups, at school, with business meetings, and even at home! It's a fantastic ice breaker when you are with someone you don't know.
Or it can be a deeper way to know a loved one (if you pick challenging facts).
How to Play Two Truths and a Lie
Luckily, this fun game is simple and straightforward. To play, one person writes down three statements about him/herself. The statements should be made up of two truths and one lie. An example could be:
- I have been to Australia.
- Dogman is my favorite book series.
- I love classical music.
Next, share your three statements. The other players in the group try to pick out your lie. After some guessing, the player reveals which one it is.
Then, you can continue sharing in a circle, or let the person who guessed correctly go next.

Make it Harder
To give your group a challenge, encourage participants to only write down statements that start with the same letter, or that stick with just one of the categories above.
Also, you can put the written 2 truths and a lie into a hat and try to guess which person in the group wrote the statements before guessing the lie.
Doing any of these is also great in the classroom when you are working on specific vocabulary! I loved using this game in language classrooms in my former career.
More in the Classroom Tips
The following strategies also work well when doing two truths and a lie in the classroom:
- Divide students into groups of 4.
- Have students say their names first (so that others can associate a name with the details).
- Encourage students to choose unique/fun/obscure statements.
- After guessing all of the lies, have the group share the best two truths and a lie with the rest of the class. See if you can stump them too!
A Fun Variation: Two Truths and a Dream
To try something different, substitute the lie for a wish. The person says something that he/she wishes were true. Expressing dreams will help you connect on a more meaningful level with this game.
A two truths and a wish example includes:
- I think chocolate cake is gross.
- I wrote a best selling book. (the dream)
- I walked straight into a glass wall.
*Encourage others to make a dream map first! Here's an example >>
Two Truths and a Lie at Home
Finally, this game is also fun for family night! While family members know each other well, that doesn't mean you can't use the unique ideas to know someone better!
Consider these questions when you are playing with people you know well…
- What is a wish you have that you often keep to yourself?
- What skill did you recently develop that your family may not know about yet?
- What is something unique you own that your family hasn't seen?
- What do you love doing at school/work that your immediate family doesn't know about?
